Ambenonium
A long-acting cholinesterase inhibitor that prevents the breakdown of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction, used to treat myasthenia gravis, an autoimmune disease causing muscle weakness. By maintaining higher levels of acetylcholine at nerve-muscle connections, it improves muscle strength and endurance in affected individuals.
